Great tour guides. Emad and Hani are incredible knowledgeable about the temples, history, and culture of Luxor and Aswan. Disappointed we didn’t have time to visit the Nubian Villages. The package is pretty pricey to not include the flight and non-refundable. The flights are an additional $225 USD per person.

We had two wonderful guides on this tour. Mohamed El Aswany for the Awan and Abu Simbel part and Emile Ghaly for the Luxor part. Both spoke excellent English and were very Knowledgeable and very nice people. I am 80 years old with minor mobility problems and both were very considerate. A perfect tour.

My daughter and I had wonderful trip. A trip of a life time for both of us. Our guide was with us for the two days....he had an incredible knowledge and history of the region. Nothing was ever a problem and he went out of his way to ensure we were happy. Our drivers were all very polite and thoughtful. We saw everything that we wanted to see and more - just amazing. Take plenty of small denomination of US or Egyptian pounds - lots of tipping, and can be difficult to obtain small change. It is a busy 2 days but well worth it if your time is limited in Egypt We did upgrade our hotel to the Sofit

I'll write Japanese but if you consider to join this tour, I recommend you to read this review. 酷すぎるツアーでした。まず勝手にツアーの予定順を変更されました。そのため、ルクソールの後にアスワンに行くことになりました。 ただ、これはそこまで大きな問題ではありません。 まず納得がいかないのは、ツアーガイドにこう言われたことです。 「ツアーは13:00 頃に終わりますが、アスワン行きの電車は19:30出発です。そのため6時間ほど駅で待たなければなりません。もし、それが嫌なら$100の追加料金を払って、ツアー内容を追加してください。」 ツアー内容が足りないのは仕方ないですが、6時間の待機が必要ならば出発時間を遅らせるべきです。しかし、彼らはそうしませんでした。 また、ツアーガイドはチップを逐一求めてきました。私はこのツアーに多額のお金を支払っているため断りましたが、最後にはかなり強い口調でチップを求められました。 車内でチップを求められたため、恐怖感を覚えました。 ツアー1日目はルクソール駅周辺で5時間ほど過ごし、19:30の電車でアスワンに向かいました。 アスワンに着いたのは22:30頃でした。ホテルには別のガイドが送迎してくれました。 しかし、ホテル予約に私の名前がないと言われました。 ツ
